A villain in Yu-Gi-Oh! around the 2nd and 3rd season in Yu-Gi-Oh!. Yami Marik is the darker side to Marik Ishtar, who wants to kill the pharaoh, Yami Marik is out to do the same thing, but has fun and hurting everyone else in the process. In the english version 4kids is dumb and just lets him banish people, while in the japanese Yami Marik trys to kill people. Yami Marik is one of the bad ass people in the show really. but can be a bit crazy... or pshycotic at times and has a very flexable tongue in the japanese. but he is sent to the shadow realm forever later on and we never see him again. His name can sometimes be used differently like Malik or Mariku or Yami no Marik (japanese version of the name) or just Marik depending on what you look him up as

"I will destroy your five senses! until all you can feel is the doom in your heart!" ~Yami Marik
